Description
Old, old road grader. Posted a shot of this uncommon, antique machine from a different angle on Feb 10, 2009.

Patina ~ Original
I ran this as a single image through the HDR process.
Hope you like it. Any and all comments most welcome.

Love the old classic pieces of farm machinery--and your shot is perfect!!
Wonderful.
Great job on the HDR hardly tell you worked the image. Lots of rust texture there.
Stunning work, I though I recognised this grader. Cheers, Clive
Fantastic capture.
A really classy shot, Bill!!
weel done shot.
How cool is that, Great shot! :)
NICE! Bring it when you come and we'll scrape the drive with it. I'm sure we can find something to pull it with.
Excellent results Bill! I like the scene and the pale blue color of the sky. Nice work my friend!
superb image!
Texture do jump out on this one.
Very well done! Wonderful image!
Beautiful work!
A beauty of a shot. Shoes of the land, sky and the machinery perfectly. Really well done job! Rob.
This is fantastic. A road grader in a field. That's just so different. And the loneliness of it is marvelous.
Great shot!!
Splendid shot my friend
I like old machinery also, and really any machinery. outstanding work
Wonderful and the faded grassland with the blue sky suits this perfectly
Great find! I'm still on the look out for stuff like this in the UK to post for you.
Superlative POV and DOF depicted in this great shot of the old oxidized road grader, sitting forlornly out on the field, an icon of what used to be. Is that blurred venetian blind effect in the top and right part of the pic a result of your HDR process?
Wow! That would have been a hard job. This is a great picture!
Very nice rustic feel with the wind-blown tall grass.
I remember "Patina" quite well. It captured my imagination, as does this image. Thank you for the second angle!
Great work on this shot, Bill! I like this pov even better and your hdr treatment is perfect!
Even without that beautiful machine this would be a superb shot and that ground looks made for laying on and staring up at the sky on a perfect lazy day.
What a find. Both images are excellent. Love this old machinery, somehow it always makes me feel better. Great shot Bill!
wow, it's so different in this version, only because its glow has now receded into a nostalgic age-worn antique, and the side-view lets us see how long it really is and how sleek its lines are. You also make some fine choices—the ascending lines of the cables (if that's what they are) moving in a slightly different direction from the horizon. And the general tilt/slope of the piece, which kind of captures the skew of an old piece of machinery. The land itself is a bit bleaker too, which fits the age of the machine, so it's really two different views of the same beast. I'm familiar with HDR, but know little about it technically (I'll look it up after I finish here...) But visually, this is a very eloquent shot. I've never seen these (that I remember), but it must be amazing to stand in front of one for a while...
